Air Fryer, Sweet Roasted Acorn Squash
This is one of my kid’s favorite vegetables, which is readily available in the winter (it’s also available in the summer, but during the summer, we tend to go with more traditional summer vegetables, since we live in the Northeast.)
Here is a step by step guide, if you have never made acorn squash (either in the air fryer or by a different cooking technique)
This is an acorn squash, which was used in this recipe.
Cut the squash in half.
Use a spoon and scoop out the seeds. Then in a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, honey, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and salt. Then use a pastry brush to brush over the acorn squash.
Set in the air fryer, and set the temperature to 325 degrees F, (air fryer setting) for 10 minutes. After the time, check and see if it is fork-tender, if not add another 5 to 10 minutes.
Plate, serve and enjoy!
